Making Extension call cellphone

[wifinetguy]

Hi, all.

I would like to have an extension created that simply dials my cellphone. I realize that in the initial build, there was an extension built to send calls to a cellphone. However, I deleted that extension a while back and now would like it back. (I know, I know...)

 

[wifinetguy]

Thank you for the quick reply. If I want to send it out a specific port, using a prefix (48 = Google Voice) would I just put in "485555555555"?

 

[wifinetguy]

lgaetz, thank you again. I got it to work using my "485555555555" number. However, to reduce any confusion, this extension is created under Setup/Extensions/Other (Custom) Device.

There is an option actually listed as "Custom Extensions" under Tools and that is not where the cellphone extension is created.

Can you please help me?

I'm trying to get this to work and I've used the settings discussed as well as some others, but it always fails.

I've attached some CLI error messages. The local phone number displayed in the messages is NOT the number I have assigned to this extension. It is as if this information is being ignored.

Any ideas are appreciated.

Thanks,
Don

[rossiv]

You called Extension 501 which has probably a FollowMe (almost 100% sure) of 6781234567. Go to FreePBX>Extensions>501>Edit FollowMe Settings>Take out the 6781234567# and replace with yournumber followed by#.

 

[dandy_don]

I did as you suggested: However, there were no phone numbers assigned to extension 501 under the Follow Me settings.

Where do I find the phone number that needs to be edited?

This is a stock install and I have made no changes to the default Follow Me settings. I was merely trying to get the server to phone my cell phone when I dial extension 501.

Thanks,
Don

 

[rossiv]

And what number are you dialing?

 

[dandy_don]

The number that I want to dial is 937xxxxxxx (the x's are the actual cell phone number, 937 is the area code).

When I did the stock install of PIAF and FreePBX, it automatically created extension 501.

I then followed the suggestion exactly as described at the start of this thread and put my cell phone number into the dial field: Local/937xxxxxxx@outbound-allroutes

That didn't work. So I tried using the various trunks, then the various outbound routes, etc., The results are always the same and the CLI debug indicates that the server always seems to try and dial the 6781234567 number, etc. instead of the actual cell phone number that was placed in the dial field for that extension (Local/937xxxxxxx@outbound-allroutes)

As I mentioned in the previous posting, I have made no modifications to the stock install regarding follow-me, etc.

Thanks,
Don

Thank-You!!

That did the trick. I created a custom extension as you suggested, filled in the details and is working great.

I'm not sure why extension is automatically populated and that changing it in FreePBX does not seem to correct the problem.

Anyway -- Its working now -- Many Thanks!!

Don
